Villain: I Can See Destiny

17: Chapter 17 What?! Empress Ziwei wants to get engaged to me?!”You mean Aunt An Xue? She went to take care of your coming-of-age ceremony.”

Young Master Xiao Zimo’s mother is named Aunt An Xue, and she is the direct descendant of the immortal An Clan.

”Take care of my coming-of-age ceremony? Isn’t it still two months away?”

Young Master Xiao Zimo was full of confusion.

”Aunt An Xue went to other forces to send out invitations.”

”Of course, our Family also has people specifically responsible for this work, but we couldn’t refuse your mother; she insisted on going personally, saying she wanted to scout for a suitable girl for you.”

Speaking of this, Xiao Chenyi’s expression was a bit strange.

”Young Master Xiao Zimo, do you know the Empress of the Ziwei Immortal Dynasty?”

Young Master Xiao Zimo saw his father’s expression, and an ominous premonition surged in his heart.

His mind instantly flashed back to the Empress he met in the Lower Realm, and he was suddenly startled.

He quickly shook his head: ”I don’t know her. I really don’t know any Empress.”

Xiao Chenyi saw his son’s reaction and thought to himself: ”Could it be that the two of them really have some connection?”

He couldn’t help but ask: ”You really don’t know her?”

”I really don’t know her!”

Young Master Xiao Zimo saw his father’s suspicious expression and couldn’t help but feel a little annoyed.

At the same time, a terrifying thought flashed through his mind: ”It can’t really be her, right?”

”Father, stop talking in riddles. What is this all about?”

Young Master Xiao Zimo said with some annoyance.

”It’s like this. Just a few days after you went to the Lower Realm, the current Empress of the Ziwei Immortal Dynasty, Sikong Ruoyun, sent a letter.”

Speaking of this, Xiao Chenyi couldn’t help but glance at Young Master Xiao Zimo.

Young Master Xiao Zimo didn’t notice; hearing that it was at this time, his hanging heart finally relaxed.

”Empress Sikong said that she would get engaged to you at your coming-of-age ceremony.”

”Of course, our Family also went to confirm it afterwards and found that it was indeed done by Empress Sikong.”

”She did not hide it; now the entire Ziwei Immortal Dynasty knows about it.”

”So you really don’t know her?”

Xiao Chenyi looked at Young Master Xiao Zimo with a serious face.

Hearing this, Young Master Xiao Zimo was also very surprised: ”What? Empress Ziwei wants to get engaged to me? Is she young?”

”You brat, what are you thinking? At our Realm, we have long been able to maintain eternal youth.”

Xiao Chenyi laughed and scolded.

”The reason I look like this is just to appear more dignified.”

”Of course, the main reason is still your mother. You know that Aunt An Xue is a jealous person. To prevent me from fooling around, she only allows me to look like this.”

”Only in some special situations am I allowed to recover my youth...”

Xiao Chenyi looked at Young Master Xiao Zimo with some resentment.

Clearly, they are a Family, so why is the treatment so different?

She can busy herself for her son’s future female companion, but she won’t allow him to...

”She wouldn’t have three thousand beauties in her harem, would she?”

Young Master Xiao Zimo said with lingering fear.

”What nonsense are you talking about! Empress Sikong is, of course, pure and holy.”

Xiao Chenyi was very angry when he heard this, as if his goddess had been insulted.

Young Master Xiao Zimo was a bit confused; he didn’t understand why his father was suddenly angry.

Xiao Chenyi did not intend to explain; this was a past event from many years ago.

Sikong Ruoyun was from the same era as him. In their era, Sikong Ruoyun was peerless in both talent and appearance.

There wasn’t a man in his era who didn’t like her. He was no exception. When he heard that she would only marry someone stronger than herself, he even went to challenge her.

The outcome was obvious; he lost by one move.

Because of this, Aunt An Xue guarded against him like a thief to prevent him from cheating, until Young Master Xiao Zimo was born in recent years, and the situation improved.

It clearly happened before he knew her; women are truly unreasonable!

So Xiao Chenyi actually approved of this marriage; if she couldn’t be his wife, having her as a daughter-in-law was also quite good.

Young Master Xiao Zimo frowned, thinking with his head down.

He didn’t believe his charm was that great, enough to make an Empress of a dynasty infatuated with him.

That was no ordinary Empress. If the Xiao Clan was the recognized number one clan among the immortal clans, then the Ziwei Immortal Dynasty was the number one immortal dynasty.

Could the other party be a Luck daughter from a System novel? Was the System mission to capture me?

Or maybe a Rebirth story?

Thinking of this, Young Master Xiao Zimo felt a little headache. Why did others have a System upon Transmigration, but someone like him who seemed like a villain didn’t have a villain System?

Although he thought so, if he were really given a System, he wouldn’t dare to use it.

The more he understood this world, the more he revered it. Becoming stronger by completing missions—it was impossible for such a good thing to happen.

Even if he encountered it, it must not be a good thing; you might have already become someone else’s leek.

Thinking of this, Young Master Xiao Zimo felt that when he had the strength in the future, he could make a System to play with; it would be more convenient to harvest Luck.

”You still need to think for a long time about such a good thing? If you have no objections, I will agree on your behalf.”

Young Master Xiao Zimo, who was still pondering, was interrupted by Xiao Chenyi.

”Okay, I agree.”

Young Master Xiao Zimo said in a deep voice. Whether she is a Luck daughter or not, he would know once he saw her.

Hearing his son agree, Xiao Chenyi looked very happy and called out ”Good” three times in a row.

Young Master Xiao Zimo was speechless. This was his engagement, not yours, why are you so happy?

...

Young Master Xiao Zimo’s return to the Family caused quite a stir. As the Young Lord of the Family, his every move received much attention, and many people were curious about where he had disappeared to for this past month.

Even if Young Master Xiao Zimo had high talent, not everyone was convinced by him; after all, the position of Young Lord involved too many interests.

Those in the lower and middle levels of the Xiao Clan who were unaware would naturally have different thoughts.

And the high-level members of the Xiao Clan, considering that doing so could encourage healthy competition among the younger generation, and added to the fact that Young Master Xiao Zimo did not object, did not tell them the truth.

At this moment, another main branch of the Xiao Clan was discussing in an ancient courtyard.

”After Young Master Xiao Zimo returned from the Lower Realm, he actually broke through to the Peak of the Dao Heaven Realm. Why is such a Prodigy not from our branch?” An elder in the Saint King Realm said helplessly.

He was the one with the highest cultivation among those present.

”The Young Lord has a heavenly appearance; it is fortunate for the Xiao Clan, but unfortunate for us. It has been too long since our branch produced a Family Head,” an old woman said.

”If only the Youth Supreme of our branch was still here,” another elder said.

Mentioning this topic, the people in the courtyard fell silent.

This was their eternal pain. Eighteen years ago, a girl was born to their branch. When she was born, there were auspicious signs from heaven, and she was born with a Supreme Bone—she was a natural Youth Supreme.

Although they didn’t know why the Family set the Young Lord position so early, they still unanimously believed that with this Youth Supreme, they still had a chance to compete for the Young Lord position.

It wasn’t as if there hadn’t been cases where the Young Lord was decided and then removed halfway through the years.

But when she was three years old, her Supreme Bone was dug out by someone from another main branch.

It was grafted onto a boy named Xiao Yi, a natural dual-pupil person. The boy is now one of the popular candidates for the Young Lord position.

They hadn’t not made a fuss, but the high-level members of the clan felt that since the matter had already happened, they couldn’t lose another Youth Supreme.

They let the other branch make major compensation, and that was the end of it.

They couldn’t understand why the high-level members of their own branch agreed; that was the hope for competing for the Young Lord position!

And they didn’t know if she, who was sent to the Land Beyond Immortality to save her life, was still alive.
